(Sola gratia, Sola fide, Sola scriptura)
"The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod believes, teaches and confesses that in Christ alone is there salvation -- by grace alone, through faith alone, on the basis of Scripture alone. To share this message with the world is the mission of the church and the reason for its existence." - Dr. Samuel Nafzger. (Dr. Nafzger's full text) The "lost and found" to find "the way" is here, if that is your choice.

A note on religious tolerance: We all need to better understand each other's faiths and beliefs -- religious tolerance and understanding is very important. In my Bible, St. Paul wrote:
"Colossians 4:5-6: “Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation
be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.”"
So, I offer a special welcome to those of different faiths, who may visit here. Thank you for stopping by.
With that said, after you have read your Bible at home, or here, (or if you are new to Bible study, may I suggest starting with Bible Notes); or some fun for children then, I hope you will enjoy the following:
Here is a wonderful Easter site from St. John's Lutheran Church in Brookfield, Wisconsin. It has Easter music, art, scripture and more:
The Easter Page
(I know it isn't Easter, but we should celebrate Easter everyday. As the "hokey-pokey" song says, "that's what it's all about!").
Speaking of "that's what it's all about", as I was trying to better understand the LCMS beliefs, I often asked, "what about this..., what about that...? , (This is a must see site for Lutherans).
